Chapter FiveA Chapter by Rebekah CraigKy's re-education begins. Things don't seem to make any sense. And he comes face-to-face with Amelia. The room had a large projector screen against one wall, and a large chair in the middle. The chair had arm and leg restraints, a weird helmet-like thing, and an I.V. next to it. "Mr. Marks. How do you do? I'm Amelia Zummer. I will be overseeing your re-education." "Cut the crap, Amelia. We know all about your little relationship with Ky." Ingrid said coldly. Amelia glared at Ingrid with a hatred in her eyes, that I have never seen. She grabbed Ingrid by the arm pulled her out of the room. They left me and shut the door. I could hear the whispers outside the room. "I don't care if you're the leader's daughter. He's one of THEM!" Ingrid was angry. "If you can't do this the way it's supposed to be done, I will not hesitate to notify command." "You will do no such thing!" Amelia sounded strong and rageful, I don't know this side of her. "If you know about Ky and I, then you also know that he's the son of Susan Marks. She will not hesitate to blow this place up to get back her son. Also, that room is full of hidden mics. I know a lot more than you think I do." Silence. "Now, let's continue with the re-education." I heard the locking mechanism click, and stepped away from the door. Ingrid walked in, then Amelia. Something about her looked different. Her brown hair was no longer curly, rather it was straight and fell across her shoulders. She was wearing a navy blue suit like the one Ingrid was wearing, but on the shoulders were two stripes, one orange and one black. Her normally kind eyes were now tired and full of rage. I wondered what happened to her since I left. "If you would take your seat, Ky." Amelia motioned to the death-chair in the middle of the room. I walked over to the chair, still in shock. I sat down and tried to wrap my mind around the fact that she was here. I felt a sharp point enter my arm. I looked down as Amelia was inserting an IV needle into my arm. She looked up at me and whispered sorry. I soon felt dizzy and nauseated. The room went black and the screen lit up. A series of imaged started to flash up. I tried to close my eyes, but I had no control over them. What did they put in my arm? After about an hour, the screen went black and the lights came on. I still felt dizzy, and craved something to eat. Ingrid came over and untied me from the chair. "How are you feeling?" she asked me. "Dizzy." "That's side effects of the serum we gave you." "I figured. So, can I eat or is that illegal?" She laughed. "No. You can eat. You can either eat in the dining hall or alone in your cell." "Alone. Don't think I'll make to many friends here." "Okay. Whatever you say. Now, come on, let's get you back to your cell." She grabbed my hand and pulled me behind her. Why is she being so nice? Where did Amelia go? After we got to my cell, she brought me some lunch. It was just a bowl of chicken soup with a yeast roll. I devoured it. I forgot I hadn't eaten in four days. When I was done, Ingrid came back to collect my tray. "Thanks. I do have a question though." "Okay. Can't promise an answer." "What happened to the rest of my squadron?" "Well, eight of them are dead. Four are unaccounted for." "Okay. Thank you. Just one more thing. Why are you being so nice?" She looked around to make sure no one was there. She opened my cell and walked in. She came closer to my face, and kissed me. Her lips were sweet like candy. I pulled away and stared at her. "What the hell was that?" She just smiled and walked away. "Hey! What's going on?" I touched my lips. Why did she do that? Is it part of the re-education? Whatever the case, I need to keep my guard up.
